Staff recommends approving the Second
Amendment to the Contract for Professional Engineering Services for Site
Development with Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. in
the amount of $23,900.00, and authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk to execute
the Contract Amendment.

In April, 2012, the City and Applied Aquatic
Management, Inc. entered into a Standard Contract for Services pursuant to Bid
No. 12-26. The bid document provides for an initial contract term of one
year, with five optional one-year renewals. Contract extension will
include change order to add new retention area at the Dunlawton
Improvements project (additional $1260.00 per year). Funding for the golf
course portion (annual cost $5,700.00) is now funded from Public Works drainage
account as shown below.

Funding Account Nos.:
41218005413414 - $36,444.00

00144005723414 - $ 2,688.00

Staff recommends approving the Amended and
Renewed Agreement for Services with Applied Aquatic Management, Inc. for
treatment of lakes, retention ponds, canals and ditches pursuant to Bid No.
12-26, total annual cost $39,132.00, and authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk
to sign all required contract documents.

On February 4, 2014, City Council approved
the award of the YMCA Pool Deck Renovations project to Artesian Pools,
Inc. Construction proceeded on February 17 and recently concluded.
As part of “value engineering” a deductive change order was identified
immediately prior to construction, but was not processed until now as there was
potential for additive change orders once the old deck was removed.
Ultimately, approximately $10,000 in savings was offset by more than $24,000 in
additions. These items are identified below:

1.
Delete center foundation section for pool
deck
$ (5865.00)

2.
Change brick pavers at northeast to
non-pervious
(3900.00)

3.
Delete concrete slab planned for north
elevation
( 684.00)

4.
Add acrylic coating over additional sidewalk (per
YMCA)
2043.00

5.
Remove and replace 50 SF sidewalk on east
elevation
350.00

6.
Repairs to existing pool lights and electrical work per
Code 12281.13

K9 Damon has to retire from the police force
for medical reasons. K9 Damon is a full-service dog trained in both drug detection
and apprehension. Thus, offering the animal for sale to the general public is
simply not an option. Therefore, we are requesting authorization to donate K9
Damon to Sgt. Bird who possesses the necessary training to control the animal
and who has already established a bond with the animal after working with K9
Damon for nearly four (4) years in the field.

The police legal advisor has prepared an
agreement for transfer of the K9 which effectively releases the City and Police
Dept. from liability for the animal’s actions once the transfer takes place.
This type of transfer is consistent with procedures followed by other law
enforcement agencies throughout the State.

Staff recommends approving the transfer of K9
Damon to Sgt. Bird pursuant to the Canine Transfer Agreement and authorizing
the Mayor and City Clerk to execute said agreement on behalf of the City.

This budget resolution appropriates fund
equity in the 106 Recreation Facilities Fund to fund change order 1 to the
contract with Artesian Pools for the YMCA Pool Deck Renovations – Phase 1 in
the amount of $14,299. This change order covers the pool lights as well.

In addition to the above change order, this
resolution appropriates an additional $230,500 of 106 fund equity to cover the
rest of the Phase I renovations which includes the pool heater, pool vacuum,
pool blanket, lap lanes and pool furniture and Phase III which includes the
remodel of the Men’s Locker Room, Ladies Lobby Restroom and architect fees.

This appropriation along with the previously
approved appropriations for the pool deck and Phase II renovations total
$716,549. A total of $718,596 was previously identified as available for
the YMCA in the 106 Recreation Facilities Fund.

The Future Land Use designation for the
entire property is Warehouse/Industrial. This designation indicates that the
planned type of development for this property is industrial. The CI zoning
district is considered compatible with the Warehouse/Industrial Future Land Use
designation by the Comprehensive Plan. The residential oriented NP zoning
district is not consistent with the Warehouse/Industrial Future Land Use
designation.

The Comprehensive Plan and Florida Statutes
Chapter 163 require the Future Land Use and zoning of a property to be
consistent. Specifically, Florida Statutes Ch.163.3194(1)(b) states, “all land
development regulations enacted or amended shall be consistent with the adopted
comprehensive plan, or element or portion thereof, and any land development
regulations existing at the time of adoption which are not consistent with the
adopted comprehensive plan, or element or portion thereof, shall be amended so
as to be consistent”.

The Master Development Agreement and Concept
Plan for the Atlantic Marine PCD, located on
properties to the north of 619 Lemon Street, provides the regulatory framework
for the planting and maintenance of a 40’ landscape buffer and 8’ vinyl privacy
fence along the west and south property line at 619 Lemon Street. The developer
will have to install the buffer and fence on 619 Lemon Street before a
Certificate of Occupancy (C.O.) can be issued on the proposed Atlantic Marine PCD site. If a development is proposed on 619 Lemon Street
before the Atlantic Marine site is built, the buffer and fence must be
installed before a C.O. can be issued at 619 Lemon Street.

Staff recommends adopting Ordinance No.
2014-10, rezoning ±1.19 acres, located at 619 Lemon Street, from property with
split zoning of Neighborhood Preservation (NP) and Commercial Industrial (CI)
to a single zoning district of Commercial Industrial (CI), as recommended by
the Planning Commission.

At the request of the City Council, Ordinance
No. 2014-11 amends Section 74-202(c) of the reclaimed water system protocol by
authorizing the City Manager, under the prescribed conditions, to suspend
reclaimed water system user chargers other than the minimum monthly charges to
all users in the current rate resolution.

Staff recommends approving Ordinance No.
2014-11 amending Section 74-202(c) of the reclaimed water system protocol and
to authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute all related documents.

In the public participation portion of the
April 1, 2014 City Council meeting, a candidate requested permission to use a
blazer previously provided to the candidate when he served as a city council
member. The city logo was attached to the front pocket of the
blazer. After discussion, the City Council approved the use of the city
logo by all qualified candidates. City Ordinance (#2012-18, attached)
prohibits the use of the City Logo by candidates.

An amendment to the ordinance would be
required to implement the city council direction. Discussion and
direction are requested relating to the council’s desire to amend the
ordinance. The city attorney recognizes that city council has authorized
another former city official to use clothing bearing the city logo after the
official’s retirement. The use of the logo on the blazer as requested by
the former official would have been consistent with the past practice and the
city ordinance. However, as a candidate, the restriction on use should be
applied consistently. The decision to allow use by all qualified candidates
does not comply with the ordinance and is not recommended. The city logo
carries the implied authority of the city and associated liability for its use
and the user’s representations. A candidate for office has not been
delegated any power or authority to act on behalf of the city. Hence the
use by all candidates may be confusing as well as create liability for the
city.
